Yukon Legislative Assembly Office ____________________________________________________________________________ Box 2703 (A-9), Whitehorse, Yukon Y1A 2C6 Telephone (867) 667-5498 Fax (867) 393-6280 •Email [email protected] Members Elected to the Yukon Territorial Council or the Yukon Legislative Assembly 1900-2016 (as of November 30, 2019) Section 5 of An Act to Provide for the Government of the Yukon District (The Yukon Territory Act) (1898) created a council of not more than six persons to aid the Commissioner of the Yukon Territory in the administration of the territory. This council was to be entirely composed of persons appointed by the Governor in Council. In 1899 the Parliament of Canada amended the Act to increase the size of the council by adding two elected members to it. A further amendment in 1902 added three more elected members to the council. In 1908 the Act was again amended to provide for an entirely elected council of 10 members. Prior to the 1978 general election, Members were elected to the territorial council or legislative assembly as independent members. Some, however, had known federal political affiliations. That is what is noted in the ‘Party’ column for those members elected prior to 1978.
